First parameter of furniture - its(her) quality. It depends not on country of manufacture, and from that, how many money manufacturer has enclosed in manufacture. Therefore good office furniture may be both , and Russian, and , and Italian. Quality - a parameter complex also develops of conformity to several basic requirements. office furniture should be convenient and structurally balanced. At it(her) there should be all elements necessary at office. Learn(find out), whether there is in given series that may be necessary for you not only today, but also later. It happened, that, having collided(faced) with necessity of expansion of office, client with surprise learned(found out) about absence in given series of cases for clothes.
a Variety of elements should provide embedding of office furniture in any premise(room). office furniture should provide various configurations of workplaces. In Russian market there are series with quantity(amount) of elements of 100-120 units. It is desirable to find such series. If a premise(room) of your office non-standard it is better to order a part of subjects. Modern lines in world of office furniture design assume use of curvilinear and asymmetric designs. Probably, you perfectly will accept bent table or a table added with an original element. Show a maximum of imagination and ask same from seller. Presence of additional elements a little bit will increase sum of order, but will allow to make office original.
Among elements should be such which would allow to generate reception (reception with special racks above basic level of tables). Probably, for you are necessary or in future such elements will be necessary. office furniture should take into account modern lines in organization of business (a computerization and so forth) Therefore in a series presence of computer tables, little tables for office equipment, supports is desirable.
office furniture should gather and understand easily. You should have circuit on which collectors of office furniture could collect office furniture (8-10 workplaces) for 1-2 hours. At this ambassador of unitary assembly - disassembly office furniture should look as new. If you knew, how many with a kind of beautiful and good office furniture is written off(copied) in a marriage(spoilage) after each office furniture exhibition on which she(it) costs(stands) all some days! In many respects it speaks economy of manufacturer maintenance of quality: a weak accessories (loops, screws and so forth), fragile materials of facing of obverse and lateral panels, bad packing.
Learn(find out) from seller, what accessories goes on given furniture. majority of series, irrespective of country of manufacture of furniture, is equipped with Italian accessories. At survey of office furniture be convinced, that on shelfs in cases (or there where screws are twisted directly in ) is not present traces of sawdust, and material of a covering does not exfoliate. office furniture should have good packing providing safety at transportation.

office furniture should be durable. It is useful to you and in event that through any time you want her(it) to replace (her(it) it will be possible to sell) or to move to other premise(room). durability of office furniture is influenced with a material and a covering of a basis, his(its) resistance to external influences. In this plan - not most bad variant. Its(her) application is justified from technological point of view: allows to create an equal surface for drawing a superficial layer, it is easier , it is cut and finished, than natural materials. office furniture from HDF is much more unpretentious in use, than office furniture from natural materials. A step forward in this direction - plate HDF consisting of fineer particles, rather than . HDF more technologically, it is less subject at casual and, as a rule, aggressive influence of a moisture (when breaks through a pipe of heating or conditioning).
office furniture trimmed natural veneers, is whimsical, demands cautious reference(manipulation). If color of a surface reminding natural breeds of a tree is necessary for you, advise to stop on office furniture covered (a paper on a basis pitches). On it(her) any colors, including figures simulating a natural tree are easily put. Unique lack - small wear resistance of a surface. Without a thick layer such surface is easily used up, scratched, does not suffer(bear) high-temperature influences.
office furniture reveted so-called laminated - is much more adapted by rather thick layer of a polymeric covering to office conditions. His(its) thickness and methods of drawing on surface or HDF may be different, surface, and merits and demerits identical will be different also. To advantages it is possible to attribute(relate) excellent for office conditions -and thermostability, to lacks - limited opportunities natural breeds.
So, if office furniture is necessary for you, performance or trimmed with natural breeds, - do not save. good office furniture costs(stands) considerable money. If it wanted to have office furniture of classical, natural shades and you may provide to it(her) "not extreme" conditions of operation, we advise laminated furniture. Well and if at your office constantly reigns revival, employees smoke behind working tables or drink coffee, an optimum choice might become office furniture covered .
it Is desirable, that you independently could be convinced of all properties of chosen furniture. For this purpose seller should have exposition of samples of furniture. It happens, that in office furniture trade under catalogues and "" ("" - a sample of a surface). But sample of a surface offered to you in size 1515 sm may appear insufficiently to estimate all properties of offered furniture.
If after consultation of seller you have made a choice it is necessary to discuss conditions of payment. Usually it is an advance payment if office furniture is available. If it is necessary to order and wait for her(it) (terms different: from one week for Russian office furniture about one month for Italian) it is possible to agree to a partial advance payment as acknowledgement(confirmation) of your order. It is possible to agree upon an advance payment at a rate of 40 percents. If office furniture will deliver specially for you, all same it is better to pay order to reserve goods and to strengthen psychological responsibility of seller (at non-observance of terms of delivery you have additional " a lever of pressure " on dealer). But it is possible, that it is necessary scheduled delivery of positions necessary to you and to pay it will be possible later; besides you will have time for reflections. In general office furniture is better to start for choosing month for one and a half up to a deadline. less time remains, it is less choice.
If you liked any series of furniture, try to understand, who from dealers costs(stands) closer to manufacturer. Moscow and Moscow wholesalers frequently are dealers each other, that allows them to offer expanded assortment. If at Russian factory it is a little bit(some) dealers hardly they observe a uniform cost policy(politics). If factory is in distant foreign countries costs may differ in times. Try to learn(find out) about a policy(politics) of discounts of each company as much as possible. Basically, order from 600 dollars may be considered or wholesale on sizes of company. On him(it) already there should be any discount. Usually discounts about 10 %, wholesale from 15 up to 20 %, dealer from 20 up to 40 and more.
Convince dealer that you will be his(its) constant client in event that to you his(its) conditions came. Additional services (computer arrangement of furniture, delivery, assembly) you may at desire add in order. In event that such services are not present, you may ask additional discount, having proved its(her) that to you similar services should be ordered at own expense or that such services are rendered by competitors.
Accepting furniture, be convinced, that on packing there are no traces of damages. Find out, from places each position consists. In waybill specify, how many places you have accepted. In suspicious packing it is better to return goods at once. Especial attention turn on . They are transported in collected kind and quite often are to damages (especially if office furniture carry from apart). During assembly marriage(spoilage) also may come to light. Therefore do not throw out packing before termination(ending) of assembly of order.
most often defect - an incomplete complete set, for example, shelfs in a case. In that case all over again it is possible to call seller and to tell, that you are not going to receive a superfluous detail - it is necessary for you only that case consist of all fixed and paid parts. If not will help, threaten, that will return a case with obligatory refund.
